The Cultural Fair!

Who: Everyone's invited!
What: The Cultural Fair
When: June 5th- 12th - admittedly dates are sort of nebulous - set up could have begun as early as the 5th, but given the event recently, more days could have been taken to do it and for people to involve themselves, so it probably "officially" starts a little later (by the 8th at the very least, though work can go on throughout it) - feel free to use your judgement/have fun!
Where: All around the town square!
Summary: Here.
Rating: ... who knows?!



Notes: Booths can be labeled as separate comments! Just put [booth name] or something in the subject line so people can find top level comments easier.

Work probably started for it on the 5th-7/8th for labor purposes, though feel free to use dates to your advantage here! (Even if characters slapdash something at the last minute, it would be fun to see! It would even be encouraged after the crazy from the last event - kind of a way to get back in touch with themselves.)

CHARACTERS ARE WELCOME TO TAG THE LOG FOR INTERACTING WITH OTHERS, NOT JUST BOOTHS, SO FEEL FREE TO TAG IN! Also a character who might not know what's going on is welcome to walk by and question it! And so forth. (Helios and Ikki made posts in regard to it and there have been art club posters around, so anyone could have noticed those as well!)

I'll leave descriptions up to you all as there isn't much that is too uniform about the displays, as everyone is encouraged to be creative about their presentations and how hard the characters worked isn't something I could define for each of you. Just keep in mind that this takes place in the plaza, there shouldn't be an issue with blocking traffic (there may be ropes up to try and keep pathways clear, however!), though it may branch around various points of the square depending on where someone wants a booth located / the number of actual participants. The square will also have a lot of brightly colored signs and decorations indicating what is going on!



For ideas/reference on how it was handled last time, feel free to look through here! There's no official signup, so go forth!

Depends, is it flattering or offensive if I say "yes" to that one. I don't know if I should go for the Gold or Silver Axe.

[And he says this with a snicker]
folklorist: (Oh is that right)

Both! >:3

[ Helios is taking a break from his own booth to have a look around at a few of the others that have been setup. So naturally he is going to visit Max's and Jack's booth. Two little dragons will be following on either side of him as he comes up to the booth. His green eyes will take in all the current confections and worldly charms that are set out. ]

I'm glad you both could make it! Those scones and cakes look positively delicious. [ He'll look at the sidhe survival guide along with the cakes. There's a wry smirk on his lips as he looks back at Max. ] The sidhe survival guide?

[Hinata is distracted by the tiny creature hopping on her shoulder and squeaking. She wants to reach out and pet it, but she's not sure how it would take to that.

Instead, she looks over at the large creature holding out its hand and she stares before she realizes that it wants to shake her hand. It's not something that she's used to, but it isn't completely unknown to her.

Slowly, she takes his hand and gently moves their joined hands up and down a few times.]


Hello. I am Hyuuga Hinata. Do you have a name?
abjurer: (Happy Smile)

[Max positively beams when he spots Helios heading over. He stoops to greet the dragons, breaking up one of the cakes to give them both half, before going over to Helios's side.]

The cakes took a bit of work since the ingredients back home aren't exactly from the human realm. [He smiles back, slightly embarrassed and nods.]

Yeah. I figured I could write down a few helpful rules. Don't eat their food, don't insult them, don't accept favours or gifts...

[She's not really fooled by his actions, but since he's not being harmful, she can let him slide.]

I have looked at most of the exhibits here for at least a few minutes. [She blushes in shame as she remembers the way she almost ran the first time she passed the Avatar booth. She will make an effort to go back there and speak with Aang-san again. Later.

And her blush only grows as he flirts with her. She's come to recognize a few of the signs, but she's still very bad at it and cannot see why he is so interested in persisting with her.]


I-I...Must you say things like that?
z_jay: (For a laugh)

[Glancing sidelong at Max first before giving him a more concrete look, he wondered if they'd have even made it through the zom apocalypse with those kind of traps. oh, but tea, he took the cup and had a sip, keeping it light since it was nice and hot]

Dancing until you bleed-- depends on your partner, might not be so long. Right, Jack?

[Grins over at his hapless companion, then looks pointedly at his shoes]

Heeeeh, so do you have any favorites you want to lead me through. Tell me, senpai! My heart goes out to your wisdom!

[He ignores the second thing she said, entirely. He just turns his smirk into a thing between a smile and a smirk before leaning into her personal space some from the side]
twinlionfists: (finger tap and blush)

[personal profile] twinlionfists 2013-06-14 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
A-ah, I have not looked around enough to have a favorite. I did like the sparring over at the one booth between the two girls. And all of the animals.

[Carefully, she moves so that his invasion of her personal space is lessened. There was plenty of space for them to walk side-by-side, but she doesn't want him so close.]
folklorist: (Er. Um. Don't kill me please)

[ Helios upon seeing Saten tenses and his eyes narrow ever so slightly as she gives that happy greeting. He can't exactly keep up the cautious look and evident mistrust of the other woman with that happy greeting though. Oh dear. He knows that the shifts can cause people to be unsettling and somewhat difficult to approach afterwards, but she seems entirely normal despite their conversation last week. ]

Oh! Ah, h-hello there. [ Don't mind the awkwardness that Helios is exuding right now. He's just a bit unsure on what to do at the current moment. ]

Are you, ah, enjoying the fair so far?

[Cross currently is at the festival looking at the booths. Man, if only there was a knife throwing booth. He'd totally win at that.

But, in any case, as he's wandering the fair grounds he bumps into a slightly smaller person than himself.]

Oh, woops. Sorry.

[However, just as he's about to go on his way, he stops as he looks at her. Wait, he recognizes that face. He saw it in his journal.]
folklorist: (Curiousity killed the cat you know?)

[personal profile] folklorist 2013-06-14 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Helios merely nods at those words. He knows they're true and it'll definitely take time to consider and even accomplish back home. He might not even be alive when or if it does come to pass. His thoughts are snapped back to the current situation as Derek asks that question. ]

Hm? Oh, ah, no I don't believe so. I-I mean I'm sure there's so christian symbolism on them, since the eggs are made in monasteries in Bukovina.
folklorist: (I'm just your average headmaster yep)

[personal profile] folklorist 2013-06-14 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ That tasty cake will be devoured in an instant with happy chirps and squeaks to follow. Luminair and Maggir approve of those sidhe cakes Max. Helios' warm smile spreads even wider as he looks back at Max and then the booth again. ]

Really? That's fascinating. I never thought to try making anything like that before. You'll have to teach me how to make them. They smell delicious by the way. [ Helios lets out a pensive hum. ]

Ah, yes, those rules. Quite important if you're going into their realm. I always found their culture and society fascinating to be honest. Despite them trying to mold and fit themselves into human society in my world, the sidhe are always a bit...easier to spot. They're always the most beautiful in the room or have the nicest of clothing and apparel. But that is simply their way of life, you can't really do much about it.

Heh. Of course they will. The Horde will prevail! Not dragons, no the raging elements, or the Alliance will bar our way to our deserved prosperity. And I don't need a human to reassurance me of this.

...As you say, tough guy.

[There’s a hint of sarcasm, but after that remark, it’s clear that sincere compliments are wasted on him anyway.]

folklorist: (Never seen anything like it)

[personal profile] folklorist 2013-06-14 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
It's clearly how to attract attention. I-I figure the magic club could use a bit more self promoting, if food doesn't draw them in I'm not sure what will.

[ And here Helios will laugh happily. He recognizes her voice from his entry a few weeks ago. ] Ah. You were the young woman who asked about the magic club a few weeks ago, correct? I apologize I-I never asked your name. [ He's absentminded like that sometimes. ]

"They are a people - a unified collection of races who see the merit in carving out their existence in a world which opposes our very existence."

But yes, warriors. He's a warrior. A lot of them are warriors.

Unlike some others, like the Alliance, the Horde doesn't feel the need to be glamorous! The tusks on my shoulders and the flag at my back more than give a presentation. And those humans who'll listen can hear more about it.

[He can't help but grin at the happy chirps from the dragons and he takes a few moments to pet them properly before turning his attention back to Helios.]

There's a bakery back home that makes them. Imported grain from Faerie, a kind we don't have. These ones... we had to improvise a little. Eugene helped. You should try one.

[He gives a wry smile at the response to the rules and nods.]

Oh, they're definitely like that. Beautiful, graceful, dangerous. Less blending in in my world in a lot of cases though.

[Makie's quiet for a moment, thinking she might have ventured onto a tender subject. Eventually, she glances back down at the dumpling again.]

...these really are quite good. Would you pass my appreciation on to the cook?
therewerefifty: (rueful smile)

[personal profile] therewerefifty 2013-06-14 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[The reluctance is noted... Makie smiles faintly. She can deflect the conversation onto her own thoughts if it makes him feel easier about it.] It was rather... bizarre. But I suppose in a way, if that's one of the more dramatic of these 'experiments', then I'm a little reassured about being able to... live with them, I suppose.
